(Provide summary information for each of the categories shown below
USE THE FOLLOWING OUTLINE TO DEVELOP YOUR PROPOSAL
Title of Proposal
0.0 Abstract
1.0 General Introduction:
This section should provide a brief description/overview of the situation, interest area or
project under consideration. What is the problem/issue/decision of interest? To whom is
it of interest, and why?
2.0 General Purpose of the Project:
This section should state clearly the general purpose of the practicum project, i.e., what the student plans to accomplish/achieve.
3.0 Specific Project Goals:
This section should identify the specific goals that the student will focus on in order to
accomplish the general purpose of the project.
4.0 Value of the Project:
In this section, the student should discuss how the project under consideration will add
value to the student and to the organization. Value-added is critical to arguing for the
importance of the project in the first place.
5.0 Plan of Action (the stages of the project):
This section should contain a timeline that reflects the major categories of activity the
student expects to manage during the project; e.g., research, preparation of proposal,
meetings with preceptor/mentor, other meetings, preparation of final report, etc. A predicted number of hours to be spent in each category of work should be shown. Recall that a minimum of 135 hours of work/input is needed to fulfill the course’s time requirement. No maximum number of hours is specified.
(Proposal, cont’d.)
6.0 Documentation:
This section should describe how you will document the processes associated with the
project (e.g., journal entries, copies of meeting minutes, anecdotal comments, etc.). You will not be required to turn in this information. However, the references may be very
useful when preparing the Final Practicum Report, e.g., they can be used in the paper’s References section.
